A Prayer For You

Lord I pray for my friends who are single moms by circumstance or by choice. I pray that You lift them up and comfort them in their time of need. That they recognize Your influence in their lives. I pray for healing, strength and power. Healing from pain, strength for today's challenges and power to walk away from sin and all the calamity that comes with it.

My friends I have walked in your shoes down the same path and into the same blazingly wrong choices. There is redemption and forgiveness. Do an about face and walk in the opposite direction. That takes courage. I know you often wonder if there's life out there, to quote Reba...there is.

For I know the plans I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘plans for well-being and not for trouble, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
